Description

This is a products liability/negligence action which was submitted to a jury in two phases in the special verdict. In the
first phase, the jury apportioned responsibility among five parties, including the plaintiff, Gordon Farrell, for the damages
caused to Farrell when he was seriously injured in a farm accident involving a John Deere corn picker. In the second phase,
the jury found John Deere Company and Deere & Company (Deere) 65% responsible and Farrell 35% responsible for Farrell's
damages. Deere appeals from the resultant judgment which awarded Farrell total compensatory damages of $966,459.65, plus interest.
1 Farrell cross-appeals as to one of the defendants, Navistar Company (Navistar). Deere contends that the trial court erred by: (1) submitting Farrell's enhanced injury claim to the jury as a separate basis
for Deere's liability, or, in the alternative, failing to compare the negligence of all the parties in the enhancement portion
of the verdict; (2) giving erroneous jury instructions; (3) permitting expert testimony regarding the degree of Farrell's
enhanced injury; and (4) granting Farrell's post-verdict motion for additur.
